Bodendenkmal in Püchersreuth, #D-3-6239-0043 stands in Püchersreuth (Landkreis Neustadt an der Waldnaab), in Bavaria, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

This site marks the location of a vanished old castle, situated about one hundred metres northwest of the parish church of St Peter and Paul in Püchersreuth. Buried remains of a medieval motte, which later gave way to a fortified residence and then a moated schloss, now lie protected as an archaeological site beneath present day buildings. Nothing remains visible above ground: the moat, still traceable until a fire in 1954, has since vanished under modern construction.

What to know

  • No visible structure remains today, as the plot has been fully redeveloped.
  • The site lies near the parish church of St Peter and Paul, at Freiherr-von-Hundt-Straße 6 and 7.
  • It is a buried archaeological site with no visitor facilities or organised access.
  • The medieval moat, still traceable until 1954, disappeared after a fire and subsequent rebuilding.
